Arabs in Palestine “are starving because of the Jews, according to S. A, Dodge, Detroit industrialist and president of Lions International, as quoted by the California Jewish Voice of Los Angeles.
Mr. Dodge, who visited Los Angeles to address a session of the Lions International California-Nevada district convention, was quoted in press interviews here as blaming the Jews for the Arab refugee problem. Mr. Dodge recently completed a visit to the Arab States. When a reporter for the Jewish Voice reached him here by telephone, Mr. Dodge said he had not been “allowed” to visit Israel. He was quoted as saying he had “many friends among the Arabs” who “showed me plenty.”
The paper quoted Mr. Dodge as declaring: “When the Jews scream, we will send our sons to be slaughtered in the Middle East, just like we sent the Jews 60 million dollars.”
